Influencer Alix Earle has opened up about what it's like to date in the spotlight – just months after it was rumored that she was seeing former New England Patriots quarterback, Tom Brady.

Earle, 25, who broke up with longtime boyfriend, New York Giants player Braxton Berrios, in December 2025, revealed all in a new interview with Us Weekly.

'I mean, my life is always out there,' Earle told the outlet ahead of her new Netflix show, Earle Meets World, which premieres on September 4. 

'I think when it comes to dating and stuff, there's moments where things are put out there before I necessarily would want them out there — and not that I'm dating anyone — but you're standing next to someone and all of a sudden it's a big story, and I think that's hard to navigate,' Earle explained to the outlet.

Earle was seen looking flirty with Brady, 49, in St. Barts on New Year's Eve.

In one video, which was obtained by TMZ at the time, the pair could be seen dancing along to some tunes before Earle leans in to whisper something in the NFL legend's ear while slowly caressing his back.

Another clip showed her glancing over her shoulder and looking him up and down as they get their groove on at the yacht party, while a third captures Brady appearing to place his hand around her lower waist.

The two were seen together again getting cozy at a Super Bowl party.

In her interview with Us Weekly, Earle admitted that she tries to make an effort to protect other people's privacy.

'So that's been tricky,' she admitted to the outlet.

'But I mean, well, I guess we'll see what happens,' the TikTok star added.

Earlier this month, Earle fueled romance rumors with  F1 champion Lando Norris, after they were seen partying together in Ibiza, Spain. 

In July, Lando and Earle were spotted enjoying a night out at The Twenty Two private members' club in London.

The pair were spotted leaving in the early hours of the morning after reportedly being inseparable throughout the evening.

However, much of her life will be aired out for all to see on her new Netflix reality show.

Earle Meets World is set to focus on 'Gen Z's ultimate "It" girl' in an 'unscripted, unfiltered series that goes behind the scenes of her life and family.'

Back in 2008, allegations emerged that Earle's dad, TJ, had an affair with Ashley Dupré, who was previously known for her involvement in a sex scandal with former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer. 

It ultimately led to TJ's divorce from Earle's mom, Alisa, in 2013. TJ and Ashley went on to marry later that year. 

With more than 14 million followers across TikTok and Instagram, a newly minted spot on Time magazine's list of the 100 most influential online creators, and a slate of business ventures that continue to grow, Earle has successfully transitioned from social media personality to full-fledged brand. 

That business portfolio includes her skincare line, Reale Actives – which reportedly pulled in $1million in sales within the first five minutes of launch in March, with products selling out in under 24 hours.
